Michael Flatley, another star people love to hate, somehow danced his way on to the musicians’ list at number nine, with £202 million. In the wealthiest young musicians list, Niall Horan ranks at number four, two below adopted Irishman Ed Sheeran, whose wealth grew by £28 million last year – more than any other British musician. While at 35th place in the overall list of richest UK musicians, the Shape Of You singer is second-wealthiest young musician. Adele is worth £140 million, an increase of £15 million on last year, so she he stayed at the top the rich list for young musicians. While the Sunday Times’ main richlist is of UK residents only, this richest musicians list includes UK and Ireland.
